Err, dude, a flamer is a power weapon in close combat (correct me if I'm wrong), which doubles its strength. Heard that at local gaming store, don't scold me.

When you forget to bring your codex to a 40k battle you have been planning with your friend for weeks. Happened once to me

This is true. For Ork Burnas. Not so sure about other armies, because it has to specifically state that in the Ork Codex.

Um.

Not true even then

A Burna is a power weapon, not a Power Klaw. It strikes at your strength, and only works if you DIDN"T use it as a flamer that round.

Flamers are not CC weapons at all for other armies, as far as i know.

The only CC weapons that double your strength are power klaws/fists and Thunderhammers, as far as i know. There may be others in codexes i don't have.

.......when you realize some guy at your FLGS lied to you about how flamers work

Meh, didn't affect the game anyway. The flamer suit didn't even get charged in the first place, as far as I know. If it did, it didn't even attack.

When you spend 2 turns throwing about 180+ lasgun shots at a single zoanthrope and do nothing. In a blind fit of rage you spend a third turn ignoring everything else just so the zoanthrope will drop...and it still stands.

...180+ Pulse rifle shots prolly would have killed it. Just saying.

... when you spend 2 weeks custon building a servo-harness from spare bits... and then YOU drop it while showing it to a friend... losing several pieces in the process.

When your opponent field 6 tervigons and 6 carnifexes and a trygon when your playing mech gaurd!

Yes, but that's not gonna help them very much. My broadsides alone still kill 5 per round. And that's IF they don't have plasma.

I know there are still twenty...I said my whole army shoots. Not JUST the broadsides. Plus, with plasma, I would get 13.5 hits, 9.33 wounds, and 6.11 un saved wound. With a multitracker, the broadsides could use plasma AND railguns, meaning 11 dead termies per turn, plus the rest of my army firing...

Err, dude, a flamer is a power weapon in close combat (correct me if I'm wrong), which doubles its strength. Heard that at local gaming store, don't scold me.

Only Ork burnas count as power weapons in close combat, and *only* if you didn't shot them as flamers in the shooting phase.

Either way a power weapon operates at the model's strength *only* and gets its big boost from the fact that it ignores armor.

A power fist/power klaw doubles the user's base strength up to a maximum of 10 and also have the ignore armor aspect of other power weapons. A thunderfist also doubles base strength I believe.

Or they have a mishap and are destroyed and the Tau player laughs loudly and heartily...

Why does it seem that whenever I do that, the enemy frowns and packs up his entire army and leaves without saying a single word?

Wait, I am confused. Do you play Guard or Tau?
